TS6 SAFETY
DO NOT OPERATE A TOOL WHEN TIRED
When tired, take a break and relax.
DIRECTION OF FEED
All blades, grinding wheels or polishing belts should always be installed such that rotation is in the
direction of the arrow imprinted on the blade, wheel or belt.
ONLY OPERATE AT THE PROPER SPEED
Severe personal injury and damage to the motor or equipment can result if operated at speeds above
maximum.
NEVER LEAVE A TOOL RUNNING UNATTENDED – TURN POWER OFF
Do not leave a tool until it comes to a complete stop. Always turn the tool off, and disconnect the
power cord to its source, when leaving the work area or when work is finished. Do not leave extension
cords attached to the power cord or power receptacle (wall outlet) when leaving the work area.
CHECK FOR DAMAGED OR WORN PARTS
Before using a power tool, check for damaged parts. A guard or any other part that is damaged
should be carefully checked to determine if it would operate properly and perform its intended
function. Always check moving parts for proper alignment or binding. Check for broken parts and
mountings and all other conditions that may affect the operation of the power tool. A guard, or any
damaged part, should be properly repaired or replaced.
USE RECOMMENDED ACCESSORIES AND PARTS
Consult the owner’s manual for recommended accessories and parts. Using improper parts and
accessories may increase the risk of personal and/or bystander injury.
USE THE PROPER EXTENSION CORD
If using an extension cord, make sure it is in good condition first. When using an extension cord, be
sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current your product will draw. An undersized cord will
cause a drop in line voltage that will result in a loss of power and overheating. TABLE 1, shows the
correct AWG (American Wire Gauge) size to use depending on cord length and nameplate ampere
rating. If in doubt, use the next heavier gauge. The smaller the gauge number, the heavier the cord.
USE A GROUND FAULT CIRCUIT INTERRUPTER
Use of a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) between the end of power cord and wall outlet is
required at all times.
USE THE PROPER POWER SOURCE
This tool is only to be used with a 120 volt 60 HZ power source. Ensure power source is at least 15
amps and 110 to 120 volts. Low voltage current can adversely effect electric motor performance and
overall life.
